Error description

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server users of the * * activity service * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: com.ibm.ws.javax.activity.SystemExcepti * * on thrown by * * ActivityServiceServerInterceptor.receiv * * e_request. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The activity service's server-side interceptors may leave activities (ie business activity or workarea) on the thread after executing an inbound request. Subsequent re-use of the threads can lead to a corruption of the activity hierarchy such that an activity becomes a parent or ancestor of itself. This may result in a variety of errors including a SystemException on importing a corrupted activity hierachy or an infinite loop, for example in LocalActivityContext.getTopContext when making an outbound request.
Problem conclusion
The activity service's server-side interceptor was modified to ensure that the thread is cleared of all activity service related state once the inbound request has completed. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 6.1.0.47, 7.0.0.31, 8.0.0.8 and 8.5.5.1.
